Speaking to FARPost, Motshwari said AmaZulu are not Golden Arrows, and Pirates coach José Riveiro must bring his best.

Motshwari said:

"Coming here is not going to be easy for them. So we are going to give them a tough time. We do have quality players that can play football and who can go pound-to-pound with them. Yes, they’re a big team, we respect them but this is football, anything can happen.”

AmaZulu's list of quality players could grow next season with the expected signing of Kaizer Chiefs defender Njabulo Ngcobo.
